If I Entrust

If I entrust my heart to you,

    You must handle it tenderly.

It needs another heart that's true,
 
    Not one that will treat it casually

But one that can love eternally.

After a very super weekend I am back at the soup reading. I enjoyed reading your poetry this morning Francine. There are so many diverse writers here and I am so happy I am able to read most of them. Have a wonderful week and may you find what you are looking for in life and in your writing. Love, Carol

The words you have here remind me of the lyrics to a song recorded by the late Rosemary Clooney years ago. This is impressive.
